Boney M

Boney M were a band, who, by the 1970s, had written a song about Grigori Rasputin. (PROSE: The Wages of Sin [+]David A. McIntee, BBC Past Doctor Adventures (BBC Books, 1999).)

After capturing the Thirteenth Doctor, the Spy Master, who had been posing as the Russian mystic Grigori Rasputin, taunted his captive by dancing to an upbeat disco tune. It included the chorus "Ra-Ra-Rasputin Lover of the Russian queen / There was a cat that really was gone / Ra-Ra-Rasputin Russia's greatest love machine / It was a shame how he carried on". (TV: The Power of the Doctor [+]Chris Chibnall, Doctor Who Centenary Special 2022 (BBC One, 2022).)

Clare Keightley jokingly called the skeleton in Chronotis' study "Boney M". (PROSE: Shada [+]Gareth Roberts, adapted from Shada (Douglas Adams), BBC Books novelisations (BBC Books, 2012).)
